Introducing The Fully Redesigned 2025 Starboard Gen R - Flat Deck All Star

The new 2025 Starboard Gen R performance and race stand up paddle board marks the next step forward in raceboard innovation. Shaped by feedback from paddlers of all levels and insights gained after the 2023 ICF World Championships, it delivers top-tier performance across a range of conditions while remaining accessible and easy to handle for all racers and performance paddlers alike.

The new Gen R excels in flat water, technical races, beach starts, and light to moderate open ocean conditions. Its lighter, slimmer build offers enhanced control, making it a versatile choice for everything from flat-water sprints to choppy downwind runs.

Inspired by the All Star, the Gen R’s rounded tail improves glide and speed while offering a smoother, more forgiving ride in ocean conditions. It’s built for responsive turning and delivers clean, efficient water release.

DESIGN CHANGES AND IMPROVEMENTS

✅ NEW Thinner, Lighter, Faster Profile

• The latest Gen R has a slimmer profile and reduced volume compared to the previous model, resulting in a lighter, quicker, and more agile ride. This is especially noticeable in side winds and beach starts. 

✅ NEW Round Rails Towards the Nose

• The rounded rails near the nose enhance tracking and control in side winds, delivering an ideal mix of stability and precision. 

✅ NEW Extended Standing Area

• Features an extended standing area that reaches further forward, making it easier to adjust your stance during sprints and downwind runs. 

✅ NEW Rockerline

• The design merges the front-end shape of the previous Gen R with the tail characteristics of the All Star, delivering excellent control in choppy conditions and impressive acceleration on flatwater. 

✅ NEW Lower Standing Area

• The updated Gen R has a standing area that's 1.5 cm lower than the previous version, lowering the rider’s center of gravity to enhance stability and control across all conditions. 

✅ NEW Recessed Handles

• The recessed race handle provides a soft, comfortable grip, making it easier and more forgiving to carry the board. This is especially helpful during running beach starts. 

✅ NEW Nose Vee Shape

• Engineered to shed water from the deck, this design boosts handling in chop and waves while adding extra “pop” in turbulent conditions.
